UCLan offers Basketball scholarships

UCLan are offering scholarships of up to £6,000 for successful applicants to a scheme which combines studying while playing Basketball at an elite level.

UCLAN Men's and Women’s Basketball Club have both been chosen as a Performance Sport at the University, with financial support being committed to ensure high level performances are produced.

Training takes place twice a week, with the teams competing on Wednesday afternoons in the BUCS league. Home games are played on state-of-the-art basketball courts at our £13.5M indoor sports centre.

The team also receives strength and conditioning programmes, nutritional and lifestyle advice, physiotherapy support and performance analysis to ensure all players are assessed, monitored and developed according to their specific needs.

The team has a close knit group of students who organise excellent social events each week. Many of the players have represented their own national league teams. To supplement this we offer a large range of sport related courses you could study or you could choose a course to suit your particular needs here.

For further information and application forms please contact: Amy Whitehead (Women’s coach) or Craig Wright (Men’s coach).
